Super Heavy God Gravion - Episodes 10 & 11

Whilst I am enjoying this it does feel like it has a lot to wrap up in the final two episodes.
 
Chihayafuru eps 2-3
Black Rock Shooter ep 2

I believe I'm now re-caught up with Chihayafuru. Infact, I'm not even sure if I watched ep3 before. BRS ep 2 was a bit better than episode 1 for me. I think they managed to do the intergration of both sides a little better this time, although I'm still puzzled by Meganekko Yomi...
 
Last Exile - Ginyoku no Fam e.15 & 16 - as they might say in the South, now we've got ourselves a ball game. After threatening to meander into obscurity for a couple of episodes after the recap, the story has quickly come back to a head and has me excited for the final "arc". So it's a bit of a shame that we have to take a time out for another clip show just six episodes after the last one, in a series that doesn't look scheduled to be as long as some anyway.

Except, well, I decided to watch the first couple of minutes just in case (I don't really have time now), and it looks like it might be worth watching...

Symphogear e.5 - Fairly fun episode in a show that was starting to get a little dull. Ryoko confirms herself as Best Character. Still don't know why they did what they did last week.
 
Aquarian - episodes 6 - 18

I am finding this show a little frustrating, the actual plot seems quite interesting, but its bogged down by episode after episode of 'day in the spotlight' character development episodes that don't push the main story forward at all.

I think there are to many pilots, some people get relegated to standing at the back and saying one line every 2 or 3 episodes . I would have just cut the number down to 5 or 6 and leave it at that.

Mushi-shi 5-7

I love Mushi-shi so much. I will only watch it a few episodes at a time as I thing It would be spoil it if I burned through it really fast.
 
Symphogear ep 4

Ohhhhh, now I see what you mean maes! This was a really good episode otherwise but...That was a weird way to end the episode. At least bust out some blatent Rocky rip off montage music...Hopefully that isn't an indication of things to come.

Idolm@ster ep 20.

I...Oh man. That...I knew that was going to be an emotional one but...Wow. Although I'm still very surprised, this could easily have been passed off as the series finale. I guess they're going to do a second Live as the final episode.

Area no Kishi e.5 - Pretty good cast of new characters, and a solidly classic plot setup. Koyasu Takehito in excellent form.

Black Rock Shooter e.1 - Meganekko Yomi is some next level thinking. I thought it was pretty good for ep 1 of this series, some of the lukewarm reactions puzzle me. Also best ED in history, by default.

I think I went in with my expectation meter set a little too high. It's not often that I'm actively looking forward to a series before it starts these days (Idolm@ster aside that is. :D) Infact I think the only things, announced in advanced, that could excite me are a fifth season for Maria-sama Ga Miteru or the most improbable of adaptations for Akumetsu.

Still unsure on Meganekko Yomi. I mean, it works...But...There's something about her (somewhat) new character design that I just don't like, but i'm not sure what that is.

My motherboard exploding, leaving me without a pc for a few weeks, did not help D: It's the same reason why I lagged behind with Chihayafuru, I had a crappy borrowed laptop but it was absolutely awful at streaming. Anyways on that note:

Idolm@ster ep 21

Hooray Kotori! This was a nice follow up to the previous episode, and a nice little bit of Jupiter development too. Next time is christmas, Yukiho episode the second, maybe?
 
Im back baby and im ready to go

While watching dragonball iv been watching a few other series along with dragonball.I'm making a list so after iv got my new ps3 il tell you them

After iv watched all of the dragonball series I'm going to start watching one piece
 
PapaKiki e.5 - The "delicacy" thing is starting to grate, as is Hina, but this remains an acceptably entertaining show.

Chihayafuru e.18 - This, however, continues to improve every week. Maybe the most emotional sports series I have ever seen. Has anyone licensed it over here?

I'd want to chisel my face off if I was married to Chihaya's opponent from this week, but she was an excellent character to add in.
